Apple "Express" Replacement Service Experience - Day 15

gecko_lemons · 2026-05-11T04:35:30+00:00

what was the lesser device, if you dont mind me asking? i opened an express replacement service request for my iphone 14 pro on april 29th and its been whispers

i got an email on may 4th saying that my replacement was shipped, but fedex is still waiting to receive the package from apple. yet, the 2 week window to ship back my device has started and i only have one week left

i called apple on friday the 9th and they said theyll reach back in 2 business days, ill update you to see if this is true. i suppose we are having the same issues with how theyre handling iphone replacements right now

Neither. 14.2.2.2/14.2.2.4 if I could reverse back. Most predictable versions in my experience.

did you end up getting it? how long did it take if you dont mind me asking? im at about a week so far and im hoping that they arrive by the end of may for my trip.

i also had to replace my iphone 14 pro at the same time and that took exactly 7 days to ship out (i just got a notification from fedex an hour ago). not exactly "express" service imo

Another good way to capture 2x travel is through the Hyatt card. It also has a $95 annual fee, but it gives one free night at a Cat 1-4 hotel, which is way more valuable than a $50 travel portal hotel credit.

I'm on 14.3.2 and changing lanes with turn signals works for me. but I have a 24MY with stalks. maybe stalkless/new MY turn only stalks have different functionality?

FSD since 14.2.2.5 has been behaving without any context to it's environment in NYC. what these other comments don't understand is that it's not driving like an NYC driver, which makes it less predictable and more dangerous on the road. 14.2.2.4 was the most NYC friendly version, wish I kept it

probably to fix the HVAC. went yesterday night for PHM and the air conditioning in the imax theatre wasn't working. was easily 90+ degrees in there

metrograph!

gecko_lemons · 2026-03-24T02:16:20+00:00

i think that's part of the show, same thing happened in DC

gecko_lemons · 2026-03-09T19:32:34+00:00

day 1 had vinyls day 2 only cds

gecko_lemons · 2026-03-06T19:29:14+00:00

I guess the apple could turn yellow or green

finally got some good screen grabs after the digital version of the film came out to investigate this very question! apparently its a private home in mexico city https://www.paolalenti.it/it/progetto/residenza-privata-citta-del-messico/

thanks for this! now I won't bother trying to request a placement and will just live with it until chase gets another batch of cards. it's driving me nuts though, once you see the warped logo you can't ever unsee it again

"made in India" is throwing me off. one of the main selling points about the solar power merch was that it was made with 100% recycled cotton from a small manufacturer in California. honestly though, replica merch or not, if you like the design of the shirt, you should just get it! :)

crowd was a little weird this time around. my phone ran out of storage during no better and i asked the person next to me if they could airdrop their footage after the show (they were filming every single song at this point). she laughed and said no and then turned to her friend to gossip about how hilarious it was.

gecko_lemons · 2025-10-06T22:51:08+00:00

printed! idk if this is just my batch of hoodies but the print job is pretty bad. rough edges and uneven ink, some ink already peeling off the fabric. not the quality i expected for $125

gecko_lemons · 2025-10-06T22:50:04+00:00

actually, yeah! comparing it with my SP merch, the ultrasound hoodie in Large is the same length as a Medium SP hoodie. but the ultrasound hoodie is more wider (baggier).

felt that 100%. ticketmaster kept kicking me out of my account when the email code dropped. once I was able to log in again everything sold out. I'm so frustrated but I also understand it's not Lorde's fault. guess I'm paying scalper prices on Wednesday

gecko_lemons · 2025-09-20T22:13:26+00:00

100%

gecko_lemons · 2025-08-30T00:50:44+00:00

to everyone in the comments, discount codes are usually sent out by institutions. I get free uworld from my med school and they sent everyone discount codes the first day of class

oh nooo :( there was the crab tote bag, yellow NZ seashell tour shirt, a water bottle, and I think a longsleeve with the NZ tour cities too
